It's exaggerated but yes, this map really reminds me of many large Chinese cities. It's probably true every major city has a People's Square. I think the map is based on Beijing.

I've been to Beijing, Hangzhou, suzhou, Hong Kong, Shanghai, kunming, Xian, Qingdao, chongching, Jinan, Wuhan, yinchuan, and many minor cities. It's an extremely stupid sterotype/oversimplification. If you want to check that easily, look at the geography of the major cities. Or, if more interested, look at city maps.
